Esau was a man of passion. That's not necessarily a bad thing. Any self-help guru will tell you passion is necessary for success. It just needs to be balanced with self restraint.

The house of the wicked will be destroyed, but the tent of the upright will flourish.
#proverbs 14:11
The house of the wicked is juxtaposed with the tent of the righteous. "Appearances are deceiving" is a common refrain throughout Proverbs. The wealth, security, *apparent* virtue of the wicked, no matter how impressive they might seem, are a façade. Real wealth, security, peace, and virtue are in the Law and Wisdom of YHWH alone.
It's chique in our movement to try and reject the Apostle Paul. This message explains how that is impossible while also explaining how to understand Paul's writings.

Lily Portion for Today:
Ladies, do not judge your family members, remember, it is only Elohiym that can cast the first stone and He never does. (Prayer: Abba, through Your amazing Grace and Mercy, my family and I have been saved. Help us to convey this truth to all who may pass our way and grant that we shall forever reflect Your image, amen.)
The wold today is a difficult place for believers but we have hope for many reasons. Psalm 46:6—7, “Nations rage, kingdoms crumble; the earth melts when He lifts His voice. The LORD of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.” Another promise and a reminder that no matter what happens our Creator is with us and we can place our trust in Him.
Why does Father???
I just had a realization this morning and need your thoughts on this.
If we think about the heavens and earth more like a Russian doll type of scenario.
Let's imagine you are standing in front of a doll house, which represents the heavens. Inside of that doll house is another smaller doll house, which represents earth. And again inside of that doll house is another smaller doll house, which represents the Holy of Hollies in the temple.
For what reason would you "play" inside of the smallest doll house of the three?
Father created the heavens and the earth, so He exists outside of "space" and is represented as you standing outside the larges doll house. He then has His presence visible on the throne in heaven.
Why then come down to earth to walk with Adam and one day with us, if He has the larger heaven at His disposal? What makes us/man "special"?
And then on top of that, why then enter the temple and only be there?
